As always the case after making puzzles for a contest, I had a few unused puzzles and I would like to share them here in the portal. At the same time, I can make some extra advertisement for the contest. Participation is free, only a registration at LMI is necessary. You can solve the puzzles whenever you like in the weekend. After downloading the .pdf-file you have 120 minutes to submit your solutions. You can find the instruction booklet here.
Mini Pento Loops
Draw 12 mini loops in the grid such that each loop contains a different pentomino. The loops don’t touch each other, not even diagonally. Reflection and rotation is allowed. The numbers in the grid tell how many of the cell edges belong to a loop.
Solution code: Row 8, followed by row 11. For every cell the letter of the pentomino; '-' for empty cells.

@flaemmchen: Probier's mal mit mehr, aber ich glaube, das ging nicht. Berechtigte Frage:-)

@flaemmchen: Ich habe die bisher alle so gelöst, dass die Pentominos genau die Rundwege ausfüllen, also immer 5 Innenfelder. Dabei waren glaube ich auch Exemplare, wo es sonst nicht eindeutig gewesen wäre.
